Organization XIII..

I just turned into a console gamer some 2 weeks ago. Still getting use of the controller as all this time, the keyboard was my best friend.

I'm starting my experience with Kingdom Hearts II. The game animation was good. I'm not really sure how many percent of the game I've played so far but to tell the truth early stages of the game was full of slow cut scene that was a pain in my butt rather than the actual game. Should have had some popcorns or chips with me.

Anyway the game now is starting to get interesting. Need to finish is as soon as possible so I could get my hands on other games. Cheepox, I don't think I'll be going back to my hometown anytime soon so go get one yourself.

My first time..

Last weekend my wife and I together with Cheepox and Piah went to the Summit for our first trial at wall climbing. I was actually having thought about doing this activity for a long time. It really was an exciting and enjoyable thing to do eventhough I've foreseen the muscle aches as an after effect.


We started with a brief course on rope tying, devices use, and communication ethics for wall climbing.

Cheepox was the first one to climb as we figured he should have the most upper body strengh (kononnye).


But somewhere around here his legs starts to shake.. and time for the real hero to show how it's done..



.. and of course, he reached the top without breaking a sweat. Piah was the only female contender as I don't want my wife to get any muscle ache so that she could give me a massage later.




In the end self satisfaction really kicks in and at last I'm certified in something. I'm a Certified Belayer! Wooohoooo!

Managing & Assessing Performance System..

What would you do when you woke up one Sunday morning and everything seemed like every other Sunday morning. The clock on your desk ticked slightly pass 9. You got up from the bed just like you usually do.

You pulled the curtain to let the sunlight in. When you opened the window you somewhat felt something is off. You paused for a moment to figure out what it is. No birds chirping. Well you thought it's just one of those Sunday. Apart from that the day seems to be beautiful.

After a nice warm shower, you turned on the TV to watch those weekend morning cartoons while munching your cereal. Oops. The volume seemed to be louder than usual. You tried to adjust the volume level to found out it is the same volume that you use everyday. You lower the volume.

Three spoons of cereal later you realized something just don't add up. It's been awfully quiet for a usual Sunday morning. To satisfy your curiosity, you went out the house. You checked out the next door neighbor. Their car is there but no one seems to be home. No shrieking and giggling of their kids that you always hear every weekend. No cars or motorcycle pass by your house. It's just so quiet.

You ran back into the house grabbing your hand phone. You tried calling a few friends that you usually hang out with. None of them answered. You tried calling your hometown. Still nobody picked up.

You reached for your keys and starts the car. You drove around the neighborhood. The road was empty. No glimpse of anybody. Things seemed to be running like usual. The traffic light. The stores in the shop lot. But you couldn't spot a single living creature. No stray cats and dogs running besides the road. No one's running the convenience store or even the gas station. Every living thing besides you seemed to disappear.

What would you do?
